problem #1

Jun 152015

Forester I-L 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 13,297 miles

I was very disappointed after driving along a dirt road, which had a number of very large potholes, to see a large crack running a quarter of the way down the passenger side headlight lens. Examining the crack I was able to see that the lens had cracked along the top edge & a chunk of the lens had broken off. Looking for the cause of the damage I was able to see that the bonnet had struck the top of the headlight lens when I had driven over a large pothole causing the damage.

Very, very disappointing as the cost of a new headlight is $923.18 & it means that I am unable to drive along surfing spots or any of the dirt roads near where I live to access the good surfing spots, as I can't afford to pay a $1000 every weekend in repairs!!!!!!!! No one else seems to have this problem who access these roads even the 2wheel drive sedans, which drive along the roads!!!! Very, Very Disappointing!!!!!!
